MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 7

EXPLANATION OF THE SHOOTING OF
GEORGE CoNDIT SMITE.-Circumstances
discovered give good ground for the theory
that young George Condit Smith, VINO was
mysteriousy shot at a. NJ, on Ihursuay'
in Madison Square, New York, was attack
ed BY rival in love affair. Mr. smith Is
bslieyed to know who shot him, but ne is
thought to have concealed the mans lden-
tity to avoid having his sweethearts name
dragged before the public in the courts.
THE ladv in the case is Miss Salile Barnes,
who resides with her grandmother, MIS-.
Mary Dauforth, ia Paterson, n. j. Mrs.
Oanforth is the widow of Charles Danfortn,
under whose will Miss Barnes, the only
daughter of his daughter Sarah, VINO mar
RED tho late Dr. Orson Barnes, fell helress
to 100000. Miss Barnes, who is known as
the prettiest girl in Paterson. is blonde OF
twenty summers, tall and stylish, and with
a profusion of sunny hair. Her fortune Is
we'll invested. Last summer, while az Nj
npara Falls, she met young Smith, who for
marly lived in Buffalo. There was love at
first sight, and each became devoted to the
other. A few weeks ago the engagement
was announced, and though Smith had not
much money they We're to be marrleo as
soon as he had completed his business
education 10 Brooklyn. He has made
several trips to Paterson during the win
ter. and impressed Miss Barnes's r ea.a
tiyes. prominent among whom are VIII
liam ]. Pyle, president of the Paterson
Water Company, as an agreeable young
man of good habits The story is current
that Smiths rival before Miss Barnes threat
ened to kill her betrothed, and that the
warning note which the latter received was
from her. a man suspected OF attempting
to assassinate Smith was released after De-
tective Price had an interview with the
wounded man, and now it is generally be
lieved that the police know who fired the
shot, and are only waiting 70 find the guilty
individual. He has not been seen about his
usual haunts since the affair. Smith is
steadily improving There is now no dan
ger that he will die Of his Injury. The bull
let is lodged in the left shoulder, but is so
deeply imbedded in the flesh that it is not
thought advisable TO attempt to remove ii
until the young man is stronger. young
man named Camp was arrested, charged
with firing the shot, but was released on Sat
urday. His friends are indignant at his ar
rest and declare that Camp will seek redress
either in the courts or at the hands OF the
police commissioners.

The GAZETTE is now the oldest NAM.

The GAZETTE is now the Oldest pape, +,
the State, and with few exceptions the al.
est in the country, and its usefulness r..
been demonstrated and appreciated du,ir.
the EIGHTY SEVEN YEARS ofits existence :.
its columns has always been found ni,,,.
of passing events, and the careful chsosi.
cling of the history ofwhati is going on inn.
world has ever been its sim. 1t is alEs,,
welcomed in the household, while in =.
counting room and workshop it has becon.
invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better facilities for Oh.
tanning news than any paper outside of II.
national capital. Situated as it is so co..
to the great centre of news, it enjoys dali,
the benefit of the Associated Pres, al.
patches from every part ofthe world henc.
its patrons can read from its columns in h.
evening what has transpired that day i,
every portion of our OVID domain as well :.
from every part of the habitable glo5:
Consequently it is an every day occurring.
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning "a.
pers.
Another feature that serves to make tn.
GAZETTE great desideratum with me,.
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres.
The local department furnishes full and
complete history of everything that occurs
in and near the city, and this feature will
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rict
mond and every section of the State, is pub
lished regularly. and all events Of interea
occurring within the bounds of the Com.
monwealth are TO be found in the column.
of the GAZETTE.
The GAzETTE's circulation is steadily il
creasing, especially among people who con
suit its advertising columns before purchss.
ing. That this is self-evident may be infer.
red from the fact that large country edi
tion-nearly as large as the daily--is sent
all over this section OF country three due:
a week, and is read by thousands, most Of
whom send here or to contiguous cities 10
make purchases. The advantages Of I'D,
vertising in the GAZETTE are, therefore, az
parent.
